I giggled when Jotaro survived Dioās knife attack by stuffing his clothes with manga, but the more I think about it, the sadder it is. He looks like this gigantic stoic badass, but heās kind of a quiet, awkward teenager under it, and his idea to protect himself against a superpowered vampire is to stuff his clothes with manga, that he presumably brought on the trip to read in his downtime. This isnāt Josephās āhaha I unravelled my hat on purpose and then had a plan on top of thatā, this is a desperate act by a kid whoās way out of his depth and has no idea what heās up against. Stuffs his clothes with manga and comes up against this terrifying man who gruesomely murders his good friend and his grandfather and laughs about it, and itās only sheer dumb luck that he himself survives. Goes home and tries to hide himself in academia and still canāt get away from people trying to murder him and the people he loves. Itās no wonder heās clearly troubled by the time Stone Ocean rolls around.
